Our Story

Timber Posse is a family workshop built around a simple pleasure: making things together.

Some of our creations began with something we wanted but couldn't find. We wanted wooden Viking and Mongol inspired figures and gnomes for our yard, but nobody seemed to make what we had in mind. So we learned to carve and made our own. When we needed mirrors but didn't want ordinary store bought ones, we made our own frames.

Eventually, some of those creations became things we offered to others.

That's always been our philosophy: make something because we love it, because we want to see it exist. If somebody else loves it too, we're happy to make another. And if not, we've still made something we enjoy.

Our curiosity takes us in all sorts of directions. We stitch, carve, design, experiment, and learn whatever new skills an idea requires. We don't believe creativity needs to stay within the boundaries of one particular craft. We never quite know where our imaginations will lead us next, and that's part of the enjoyment.

Much of our work draws inspiration from the clothing, textile arts, and traditions of the Steppe. We love discovering how people have expressed themselves through what they wear and make. But we're not creating strict historical reproductions. We take what inspires us and interpret it through our own hands, creating garments, headwear, carvings, and artwork for life today.

We want our work to be worn, used, and enjoyed – not tucked away until the next faire. A cloak can feel right on an ordinary evening out. A distinctive hat can belong on a city street as readily as at a festival. A handmade carving might simply make someone smile when they walk past it.

At the heart of Timber Posse is the life we share: spending our days creating together, following our curiosity, and sharing what we make with people who appreciate it. We value the friendships, conversations, and camaraderie that grow around our work as much as the work itself.

We hope a little of that joy finds its way into every piece.
